Branding a Slanderer.
THKH1C HAS never been a i ity
Kovcrnnient Io enough or
viKilnut eunuch to pi event
entiiely the iiraetices of
Foclal vice. So Ions as the demand for
piobtitution exists turning men nml it
is made profitable for women to sell
themt-elves into ways of shame, the
supply of evil women will continue and
society, as in the past, will lie able to
do no more than to keep its cancer as
far out of public view as possible, l'or
this purpose it must maintain a close
espionage upon those who traflle In it.
Such an espionage exists in Scrunton.
The assertion of the Times that our
streets have as many lewd women on
them as the streets of Whitechapel in
London is an infamous slander. It is
tin insult at once tu the manhood and
womanhood of svinnton and a defaina
tiun of the city and of the city govern
ment that has for its only excuse the
miserable apology of a temporary par
tisan purpose. Our business carries us
upon the principal stieels at vailous
liours in the night and we say without
hesitancy that they are as fiee fiom
objectionable women as are tin- streets
of any other city with which we aie
familiar. In this lespect a notable
change has oeeuired within ilie past
few months and it is duo dlieetly to
the impioved government had since
the much maligned "ripper" low be
came locally elfectlve.
There Is work yet to be done by Hie
police in cleansing plug up spots and in
breaking up practices which recruit the
ranks of the depraved and abandoned,
AVo make no claims for the present ad
ministration which are not justified.,
tVluu it took onieo municipal affairs
were sadly demoralized and It has
taken time to get them icadjusted. The
department of public safety lias by r.n
means yet done all that It intends to
do io make our city safe and clean.
Kvery day It Is making progress and
perfecting pluns. That It does not her
nlil Its moves conspicuously In the
newspapers does not signify that It Is
Idle.
IJut on the strength of what luis al
teady beep aciomplibhed, and legunl
less 'of what may rightly he expected
of t li'i; future, we brand the nci ligation
nt tl: Times as fuhe, slanderous,

TllfS KAIl the conduct of the
striking employes of the
Seranton Hallway company
bus been exemplary and
there Is no reason to believe that It
will be otherwise. When they stiuck
for belter conditions a year ago they
had proof that violence hurt mine than
It helped their cause nml it will bo to
their interest this time, as well as in
ucenrdnnce with their knowledge of
what Is right, both to be orderly and
law-abiding themselves and to use their
utmost endenvois to icpress signs of
lawlessness b others.
Ju a spirit of mischief many children
have formed the habit of placing ob
structions, on the car tracks, of tin ow
ing stones at passing ears and of jeer
ing and annoying those who have taken
the strikers' places. So far as our
knowledge goes, tills has not been
prompted by malicious motive but has
been mote in the nature ot a link. It,
however, Is lawlessness. It Is a tios
pnss upon puiperty lights, an injury
not only to the Traction company but
also to diiveis ot oidlnary vehicles,
and a source of disorder with h, If not
cheeked, might grow Into violence. As
a rule, children are out of place play
ing in the streets, partiiiilarly where
street cars tun. They an especially
out of place In the streets when com
mitting acts of doptectatlon and taking
Hist lessons in lawlessness. I'.nent.i
who net ink this are neglectful ami
should lellect that if in consequence
of indulgence their children should get
into Double they themselves would lie
piinuitilv tesponslble.
At a time like tills, when persons of
evil inclination are piono to foment
tumble, it behooves all orderly cllizus
to be doubly clieuinspect. "We do not
apprehend serious scenes but expel ience
teaches that they are mure likely to
occur during a time of conlllet between
capital and labor than when all is tran
quil. I'onsetuiently tho.se who value
the city's reputation should use their
best Intluenee to discourage acts of
trespass and should co-opeiate with
the olllceis of the law to foi estall and
prevent possible hreuclus of the peace.

Lumbering and Water Supply.
TDK (JKNi:il.l. interest and
even enthusiasm which
scletulllc f o rest r y h a s
aroused In this country, In
the last delude, lias sei veil to empha
size more than ever the close 1 elation
existing between the country's forests!

that the forest cpiestion ami ihe walet

The Wunuinuker type of newspaper
has been a line school for the light
headed young men who concocted the
amavdng scheme which has resulted
thus far In kidnapping a woman and
landing the Kidnappers In Jail. Young
men who dally see their employers re
soil to the most dishonorable means
to manufactnic exaggerated news
which will sell their papers, stopping
at nothing from hiring people to per
Juie themselves, to the murder of icp
utatlons, aie i at her apt to have their
moral senses blunted. Iteporters on
such papers aie familiar with the pec
tuelc of their chiefs engaging In the
most questionable methods and grow
ing rich theieby. They know Unit their
own positions demand that they shall
secure sensational news. On this oc
clusion they have certainly risen to the
emergency and have furnished the
world wllh a crazy Illustration of dar
ing and dopravlt.. The story of the
kidnapping and robbery of Miss tiood
llclt Is, however, no more exciting, no
more ciimlnally daring, than the meth
ods employed every day by such news
papers. The iittlmntion that King Kdwnrd is
suffering with cancer Is Indeed sad
tidings. That the l tiler of a great peo
ple should come Into his kingdom but
to find hhwolf the victim of a disease
so cruel, so relentless that to think of
it blanches the cheek and chills the
heart, Is the iiony of a fate as In
scrutable and pitiless as that which
struck down our president and set u
whole nation to mourning. AVlth the
proudest heritage on earth, with the
benediction of a life like that of Queen
Yietorla, lo follow him, and witli the
reasonable expFelatlou of agd as beautl
i n I and beloved as her own, the prom
ise of a great reign seemed foretold
from the day when King Kdward as
cended the throne. Americans will ex
pel Ience slnceie regret that his health
Is thus impei Hod and it will be their
deepest hope that medical science will
be lownrded In thp r.lfnrt It Is In nmkn
In battling with this dreaded disease.
The appeal made to the tuberculosis
conference by the king a few days
ago has a new and pathetic signill
came in the light of the news which
has just been given to the world.
